Hey today i got a windows 8 laptop for xmas that i am currently using and so when i got it i downloaded minecraft and it worked good for the first few hours but then i tried to install optifine so when i opened minecraft.jar with winrar it said access denied and it glitched minecraft so now whenever i start it up i press login and it asks me if i want to update so i click yes and then halfway through the download i get this:
Fatal error occurred (4): C:\Users\Elijah\Appdata\Roaming\.minecraft\bin\minecraft.jar (Access is denied)
Could somebody please help me i want to play with my friends on servers
Try deleting your bin folder, and then when you start the launcher, start it as administrator.
It doesn't let me delete the bin folder. I've tried a tutorial of how to get permissions to rename/delete/move files, but it didn't workWait I just ran the launcher as administrator and it worked! you're awesome dude
